Product Description

The Tool For Analyzing and Metering Spectral Distribution

true:balance is a metering plug-in that offers you all the necessary info and guidance for taking the right steps towards optimizing the spectral balance and mono compatibility of your mix.

• Real-time spectrum analyzer and the average spectrum
• Genre-based references and custom reference option
• Info on stereo width and stereo correlation values

With true:balance, users have access to all the information and guidance they need for a well-balanced mix. An adjustable spectrum analyzer displays both the real-time spectrum of the input signal and the average spectrum over time. To meet listening expectations, true:balance allows to compare the spectral distribution of a mix in reference to either different genres or custom reference tracks.

The plug-in’s ability to display level-values—in the lows, mids, and highs—relative to the chosen reference, lets the user focus on the overall balance of their mix and avoids the distraction of too many details. At a quick glance, target indicators show whether input signal levels are close to the suggested values of the reference. For those who appreciate additional guidance, a Balance Check suggests what actions to take in order to achieve a distribution similar to the chosen reference. For precise insight into the proportion of the left and right channels and consequently the mono compatibility of a mix, true:balance also sports a channel data section with all the essential info concerning stereo width and correlation values.

true:balance provides all the information and guidance you need for a well-balanced mix. An adjustable spectrum analyzer displays both the real-time spectrum of the input signal and the average spectrum over time. To meet listening expectations, true:balance also allows to compare the spectral distribution of a mix in reference to either different genres or custom reference tracks. Additionally, the plug-in provides you with information on the width and correlation of your track to avoid issues with mono compatibility or a blurry low end.

Features

Advanced Spectral Balance Metering

true:balance is a metering plug-in that will make sure you've got all the info you need on the spectral distribution of your mix. All the displayed readouts as well as their visualizations are designed to ensure that you won’t have to second-guess what you are seeing. true:balance’s key readouts are supported by target indicators, allowing you to see whether your track is close to the values of your chosen reference. The channel data section displays all you need to know about the stereo width and correlation of your mix and, hence, the mono compatibility of your mix.

Reach Your Goal With The Help Of References

Since the “right” spectral distribution has a lot to do with listening expectations, genre-based references are great to compare your mix with. true:balance's included references draw from a vast amount of audio data and hands on mixing experience. When you want consistency across an entire project – go for the option of loading up to 8 reference tracks.

Guidance Just A Click Away

true:balance is designed for professionals as well as ambitious bedroom producers. The latter will appreciate the hints on which modifications their mix requires to approach the reference values. true:balance has got you covered: There is a Balance Check that analyzes the current spectral distribution of your signal then compares it with your reference and gives you text-based suggestions. Mono Check points out any potential problems concerning the mono compatibility of your mix.
